Skip school -- loose your license. That's
the message some South Carolina lawmakers have for teens. A bill
that would yank driving privileges of dropouts and truants has
narrowly cleared a key state House subcommittee. A smiliar bill
passed the House last year, but died in the state Senate.
Supporters say the measure is aimed at being an incentive rather
than a punishment. But opponents say the measure would have little
effect, because many poor teens don't have cars.
